Bella's Story

Looking for a big personality in a small, fluffy package? Say hello to Bella, the 13-lb Shih Tzu who proves that the best things really do come in fun-sized editions.<br/><br/>She may start out a little shy, but give her a minute and suddenly you’ve got a snuggle-obsessed shadow who thinks your lap is prime real estate. Couch? Bed? Your favorite hoodie? Bella will gladly occupy all of the above.<br/><br/>Bella is a mature 5–6 year-old lady who enjoys the finer things in life: slow, classy vibes only. She loves calm dog friends and even cuddles with her foster dog sister… but don’t bring that wild puppy energy around her. She’s far too sophisticated for that nonsense.<br/>She’s got a couple of quirks (don’t we all?). Face cleaning? She’ll tolerate it with a little patience. Snuggling with you while someone approaches? She may throw some diva side-eye or a growl at the person approaching - easy fix, though: just pop her back down on the ground and she remembers she’s a gentle lady.<br/><br/>Her hobbies include:<br/>- Eating all the snacks<br/>- Strutting her stuff on walks<br/>- Perfecting the art of napping<br/>- Using the bathroom outside… or a puppy pad if it’s a code-red situation<br/>- Being the cutest thing in the room<br/><br/>Bella is crate trained, affectionate, hilarious, and looking for a patient home that appreciates a dog with charm, snuggle skills, and just the right amount of quirky diva energy.<br/>If you’re ready for unconditional love (and possibly losing your lap forever), Bella’s ready to move in!<br/><br/>To adopt her, please apply on www.orphanannierescue.org<br/>Her adoption fee is $300, which includes her shots up-to-date, microchipping, spay, heartworm testing, and dental cleaning.
